emanating
Flowing out from
Emanating is the present participle of emanate, which means to flow out from a source or origin.
Light emanates from the sun, heat emanates from a fire, and a strange smell might emanate from the basement.
The word applies equally well to abstract things: Confidence emanated from her every gesture.
When something is described as emanating, it suggests a continuous outward movement or spread from a central point, whether physical like radiation or intangible like influence or authority.
